Hi,
I am a Computer Science PhD applicant for Fall 2010. My aggregate is 85 and GRE – 1240 (730 quant + 510 verbal). Please help me with the list of schools I could apply for where I could expect to be funded. Do let me know if it would be helpful to give GRE one more time.
Kindly Advice.
Thanks!
PhD in Computer Science
Not many students visiting this blog are applying for PhD. Most of the visitors are applying for Masters Degree in US Universities. But, students applying for PhD posting questions asking for list of Universities shows that have lot to learn about University Selection. First you have to understand that studying PhD is much different that studying Masters.
Same applies to selecting universities for PhD. You are going to spend 4 to 6 years studying PhD. If you asking someone to select Universities for you, be willing to take a huge risk of losing money, maybe you might get frustrated while in school. You might not like to college, course, research, …
Students applying for PhD, please don’t select universities like a student applying for Masters program. There are so many other factors that have to be considered before selecting universities. Studying doctorate degree requires lot of effort and dedication. Some, students apply to PhD without having any clue and not knowing what to expect during PhD research work.
1240 is good GRE score to get admission for PhD in Computer Science at US University. You have enough time to select university and apply before Nov end.
